Cole's a guy who has good theory on what good announcing is but completely botches it on execution most of the time. I mean you can see him working the experience and talent of the workers into his normal PBP but he often ends up doing it in a way that it basically comes off as irrelevant factoids more than something that's relevant to how the match is going.

I mean you can blame that on someone being in his ear all you want, and I'm sure that's part of it, but I think a big part of it is you just not being as familiar with the workers in the UK Tournament so you don't see it as obviously irrelevant as you do with the workers you're more familiar with. It's also possible Cole was helped in the UK Tournament by things like Twitter and such not being thought of as as relevant there-- which again I don't think is all on the voice in his ear and is partially on the product throwing so much content out there and Cole not really having any instinctive idea of which of that content is interesting to the viewer.

I think Coach actually brings relevant stuff up a lot more often-- it's much more glaring now because there's so much more garbage that Cole has to filter than there was back when Coach was a regular announcer. Granted this may not hold as he's got a one show sample size to work with on his return and he may fall off a cliff but he was so much better than Cole in that one show.
